how to watch youtube videos that are blocked in your country

YouTube is the major source of online videos and it’s stands first with its billions visitors and trillions views per
day from the far wide of the globe. It is the largest video portal from the search king Google Inc. There are many videos in Youtube which are region-restricted or blocks for specific geographical location i.e. those videos are only available in allowed countries. If you are watching these types of videos from any blocked country for that video then following error message will appear: “The uploader has not made this video available in your country”. or “This video is not available”.

On the other hand if your computer’s IP address falls outside that geographic region, YouTube will display an error saying “This video is not available in your country” – this message has nothing to do with censorship, it’s the owner of the video clip who could be limiting access.

To watch these types of video, you have to fake your location or watch it via any allowed country proxy. And so you can try following methods also.

1. YouTube videos blocked in your country:

Suppose If the blocked YouTube URL is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDwE36Dk1gk
Then just replace /watch?v= with /v/
After modifies the YouTube URL, It should look something like this http://www.youtube.com/v/ yDwE36Dk1gk
Point your browser to the above URL, Wow you have played video in the full-screen mode even it is blocked in your country.

Hola is available for all major web browsers including Google chrome and Firefox, but for the best experience I would suggest you to use it with Google chrome.

Now when you land on a YouTube video that is blocked in your country. Click on the Hola extension and select from a country flag to view the blocked YouTube video using a proxy server.
